Top Ballroom Dancers Compete in “America’s Ballroom Challenge”

“AMERICA’S BALLROOM CHALLENGE” is the exciting series that brings together top ballroom dancers from around the world to compete across dance styles for the title of “America’s Best.” The series returns for a third season with five one-hour episodes. Shot in high definition at the world’s largest ballroom dancing competition in Columbus, Ohio, season three of “AMERICA’S BALLROOM CHALLENGE” airs Wednesdays, Jan. 30 through Feb. 27 from 8 to 9 p.m. ET on PBS.
Hosted by actress and dancer Jasmine Guy and seven-time U.S. National Latin Dance Champion Ron Montez, “AMERICA’S BALLROOM CHALLENGE” once again takes viewers onto the dance floor and behind the scenes as 24 world-class couples compete for the ultimate dance title. Each of the first four programs will focus on one of the four major styles of competitive ballroom dancing: American Smooth, American Rhythm, International Standard and International Latin. The six finalists in each style will first compete as a group, performing the five standard dances in the category, with expert judges scoring their performances. Then the dancers will have an opportunity to shine, performing a show dance solo. Each program will end with the crowning of one couple, named champions in that style.
In the fifth and final program, the four champions will compete across dance styles for the coveted title, with each couple performing two pull-out-all-the-stops solos.
Only one couple will be named “America’s Best.”

We would like to congratulate all participants at this year's National Dance championships in Orlando, Florida. it was a truly magnificent event and Jupiter was for sure noticed as one of the top dancing studios in the country.All of our students made us very proud.

Wayne Phelps made his cometitive debute on Saturday, looking great between very experienced championship dancers.
Keiko Pugh gave her competitive debute and won over everybody with her lovely personality and immaculte style and class.
Friday evening came and everybody looked forward to see the professional divisions.
It was a wonderful evening and both of our couples gave a performance that did not keep people in their seats.
Warren & Babette gave their World premier in American Smooth.The reaction of the audience was overwhelming, to get standing ovations at a debut is more than anyone can expect or hope for.
Vladi and Gabi prooved that they are belonging to the very top of their field. They came in second but many people were in the opinion that on this night they were delivering the better performance and should have won.
The next day they also gave an exciting performance at the Professional show, where they performed a solo. The show has been choreographed by no one less than Taliad Tarsinov, a world renown coach and choreographer, Blackpool lecturer and owner of the Fred Astaire New York East Side studio.
It has been a wonderful event, we are already looking forward to our nationals in April in Las Vegas.
